Key Features of the Danner Light II 6" Brown
-
Nubuck Leather & 1000 Denier Nylon Upper: For abrasion- and scuff-resistance, Danner uses full-grain nubuck leather combined with lightweight, breathable Denier nylon, offering some of the best protection in cold and wet environments.
-
Waterproof GORE-TEX® Liner: 100% waterproof and breathable, so no water gets in while sweat and moisture get out.
-
Danner Airthotic®: A molded polyurethane instep that cups the heel and supports the arch, with a half-length, perforated shape for airflow.
-
Vibram® Kletterlift Outsole: Superb heel shock absorption, with a rubber compound built for great traction and stability on both wet and dry surfaces.

Fiberglass Shank: Built-in support for long days on your feet.
